4 More Bizarre Home Remedies
Warm salt water gargle for sore throats
The old salt water gargle works by drawing excess fluid out of infected throat tissues. This temporarily reduces the swelling and can dramatically ease the pain. Use about one part unrefined, ground sea salt to six or seven parts water.
Peppermint for gas
Need a quick fix for flatulence? Peppermint kills bacteria that can cause bloating as well as relaxes the gastrointestinal muscles for easier digestion. Take two enteric-coated capsules (500mg each) up to three times a day to help reduce gas and ease digestion. Sipping on peppermint tea can also help.
Tennis ball for snoring
If your snoring is keeping you and your household up at night, try the tennis ball technique. This technique is highly effective for back-snorers. Sew a shirt pocket from a T-shirt to the mid-back of your pajama top. Place a tennis ball in the pocket. When you roll over on your back, the tennis ball will make it uncomfortable, and you will flip back over on your side.
Black tea for sunburn
If you’re out of aloe, reach for a steeped bag of black tea for your sunburn. The tannins help to soothe the pain, prevent peeling and speed up the healing process.
